First Philippine Industrial Corporation (FPIC) owns and operates the sole, largest commercial oil pipeline in the country, transporting crude and refined petroleum products from Batangas to Metro Manila. It was established in 1967 primarily to service the fuel requirements of Meralco and the oil refineries in Batangas.
FPIC’s pipeline system consists of two main pipelines, one for the refined petroleum products (the “white” line) and the other for heavier petroleum products (the “black” line).
First Gen Corporation exercises organizational supervision over FPIC, while the company is 60% owned by First Holdings, in partnership with Shell Petroleum Co., Ltd. (UK) which owns 40%.
In 1992, the Energy Regulatory Board renewed FPIC’s concession to operate its pipelines for another 25 years.
FPIC maintains IMS certification for ISO 9001:2000, ISO 14001:2004, and OHSAS 18001:1999; information security management system certification for BS-7799:2002 Part 2 (UK); social accountability management system certification for SA-8000:2001 (UK); and human resource management system certification for Investors in People (UK).
